-  The full name is current-limited high-potential breakdown tester, or 
'hi-pot' for short.  It is typically used to examine a vacuum 
tube(valve)/relay/capacitor for vacuum intergrity, and to examine 
rectifiers for avalanche voltage.  There's a circuit and description of a 
hi-pot on my Web site:
